Status at time of printing
BMW pursues a policy of continuous, ongoing development that is conceived to ensure that our vehicles continue to embody the highest quality and safety standards combined with advanced, state-of-the-art technology. For this reason, it is possible that the features described in this Owner's Manual could differ from those on your vehicle. Nor can errors and omissions be entirely ruled out.

For your own safety
Use unleaded gasoline only. Fuels containing up to and including
10% ethanol or other oxygenates with up to 2.8% oxygen by weight (i.e. 15% MTBE or 3% methanol plus an equivalent amount of co-solvent) will not void the applicable warranties respecting defects in materials or workmanship. Field experience has indicated significant differences in fuel quality (volatility, composition, additives, for example) among gasolines offered for sale in the United States and Canada. The use of poor quality fuels may result in driveability, starting and stalling problems especially under certain environmental conditions, such as high ambient temperature and high altitude.
Should you encounter driveability problems which you suspect could be related to the fuel you are using, we recommend that you respond by switching to a recognized high-quality brand.
Failure to comply with these recommendations may result in unscheduled maintenance.
Follow the relevant safety rules when you are handling gasoline.<
Important safety information!
For your own safety, use genuine parts and accessories approved by BMW.
When you purchase accessories tested and approved by BMW and Original BMW Parts, you simultaneously acquire the assurance that they have been thoroughly tested by BMW to ensure optimum performance when installed on your vehicle.
BMW warrants these parts to be free from defects in material and workmanship.
BMW will not accept any liability for damage resulting from installation of parts and accessories not approved by BMW.
BMW cannot test every product from other manufacturers to verify if it can be used on a BMW safely and without risk to either the vehicle, its operation, or its occupants.
Original BMW Parts, BMW Accessories and other products approved by BMW, together with professional advice on using these items, are available from all BMW centers.
Installation and operation of non-BMW approved accessories such as alarms, radios, amplifiers, radar detectors, wheels, suspension components, brake dust shields, telephones (including operation of any portable cellular phone from within the vehicle without using an externally mounted antenna) or transceiver equipment (such as C.B., walkietalkie, ham radio or similar) may cause extensive damage to the vehicle, compromise its safety, interfere with the vehicle's electrical system or affect the validity of the BMW Limited Warranty. See your BMW center for additional information.<
Maintenance, replacement, or repair of the emission control
devices and systems may be performed by any automotive repair establishment or individual using any certified automotive part.<

20 Indicator and warning lamps
Technology that monitors itself
Many of the systems of your BMW monitor themselves automatically, both during engine starts and while you are driving. Indicator and warning lamps that are identified by "●" are tested for proper functioning whenever the ignition key is turned. They each light up once for different periods of time.
If a fault should occur in one of these systems, the corresponding lamp does not go out after the engine is started, or it lights up while the vehicle is moving. You will see how to react to this below.
Red: stop immediately
Battery charge ●
The battery is no longer being charged. There is a malfunction
of the alternator V-belt or in the charging circuit of the alternator. Please contact the nearest BMW center.
If the V-belt is defective, do not continue driving, otherwise, the
engine could be damaged due to overheating. If the V-belt is defective, increased steering effort is also required.<
Engine oil pressure ●
Stop the vehicle immediately and switch off the engine.
Check the engine oil and top off as required. If the oil level is correct, please contact the nearest BMW center.
Do not continue driving. If you do so, the engine could be damaged
because of inadequate lubrication.<
Tire Pressure Control (RDC) ● In addition, an acoustic signal is sounded: a tire failure has
occurred. Reduce vehicle speed immediately to stop the vehicle. Avoid hard brake applications. Do not oversteer. For additional information, refer to page 91.
Brake warning lamp ●
If the lamp comes on when the parking brake is not engaged:
check the brake fluid level. Before driving further, be sure to read the notes on pages 126 and 148.

Fuel filler door
Before filling the tank, shut off the engine. If you do not, fuel cannot
be filled into the tank and the Service Engine Soon lamp may come on.<
Press on the rear edge of the fuel filler door to open and close it.
Regarding unlocking it if the central locking system malfunctions, refer to page 180.
When handling fuels, comply with all of the applicable safety
precautions and regulations pertaining to fuels.
Never carry spare fuel containers in your vehicle. Whether empty or full, these containers can leak, cause an explosion, or lead to fire in the event of a collision.<
Simple and environmentally friendly
Open the filler cap carefully to prevent fuel from spraying out.
Fuel spray may cause injury.<
Keep the filler cap in the bracket attached to the fuel filler door.
When refueling, insert the filler nozzle completely into the filler pipe. Pulling the nozzle out of the pipe during refueling
>results in premature pump shutoff
>and will reduce the effect of the vapor recovery system on the pump.
The fuel tank is full, whenever the fuel nozzle shuts off the first time, as is specified for proper service.
Tank capacity: refer to page 199.
Fuel specifications
The engine uses lead-free gasoline only.
Required fuel:
Premium Unleaded Gasoline, min. 91 AKI.
AKI = Anti Knock Index
Do not use leaded fuels. The use of leaded fuels will cause perma-
nent damage to the system's oxygen sensor and the catalytic converter.<
Tire inflation pressure
462de197
Proper inflation pressures are on a sticker attached to the B-pillar and visible with the driver's door open.
Check tire pressures
On the next page you will find all the tire pressure and ambient air temperature specifications stated in the units usually used in your country (psi; kilopascal).
For vehicles with Tire Pressure Control (RDC):
After correcting the tire inflation pressure, reactivate the system. Refer to page 91.
27
Check tire inflation pressures, including the space-saver spare
tire, regularly, at least every two weeks and before beginning any extended driving. Otherwise, incorrect tire pressure can lead to tire damage and accidents.<
Index Data Technology Repairs Car care Controls Overview
28 Tire inflation pressure
Comply with tire approval specifications
The inflation pressures in the table apply to tires from BMW-approved manufacturers. Your BMW center is familiar with these manufacturers.
Higher pressures may be specified for tires made by other manufacturers. You will find a list of approved tires beginning on page 137.
Your vehicle is equipped with tires that meet US and European standards. We recommend the exclusive use of tires approved by BMW.
